Batman v Superman passes $850 million at the worldwide box office

Warner Bros. Pictures’ Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justicehad its smallest week-to-week drop. The film was down just 38% as it took sixth place with$5.5 million and has now earned $319.5 million domestically. Internationally, Zack Snyder’s superhero slugfest took in another $8.3 million this weekend in 66 markets (most of that from Brazil) bringing its international total to $532.1 million and worldwide total to $851.6 million so far. (It’s good to note that Marvel Studios’ Captain America: Civil War will open in many countries overseas next week, so Batman v Superman may not get to the $1 billion mark worldwide.)

In Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante, fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.
